As most of you would know, Vandoren v12s are known for being very inconsistent...
Right now I play on v12 3.5s and have also played on 3.5+ in the past. I find that the majority of the reeds I open end up being too strident in sound. Even for the 3.5+, after adjusting, they are too strident in nature.
That was just for context. Recently I opened a really good reed that was very dense in sound and "covered", and I was wondering if the density of the cane used for reeds actually impacts the sound? If so, are there any reed brands that use denser cane?
I was also looking into D'addario reeds, as they seem to have gotten better over the years. If anyone has good recommendations for reeds that are both consistent and has denser cane, please, do tell!
